Barcelona’s Loss: Chelsea Extends Ian Maatsen’s Contract Secretly

Published

on

According to recent football news, Lan Maatsen, 21, has extended his contract with Chelsea until June 2025. This action is being taken as FC Barcelona closely monitors the young talent.

Maatsen, a member of Chelsea since 2018, had successful loan stints with Charlton, Coventry, and Burnley before making his Premier League debut last season. He made a significant contribution to the 101 points and championship that Vincent Kompany’s team earned the previous season.

By exercising an option to extend Maatsen’s contract before it was originally scheduled to expire next summer, the Blues have taken prompt action. Barcelona had been considering a deal to sign the rising star for nothing in the summer or in January.

Maatsen has appeared six times in the Premier League as a substitute this year. Levi Colwill, a fellow rookie, is a fierce rival for a spot in the lineup, though. Maatsen can play on the wings thanks to his versatility, but manager Mauricio Pochettino has primarily used him in defense.

Maatsen is part of Chelsea, who is preparing for their match against Arsenal on October 21 at Stamford Bridge. The future is exciting for the talented young Lan Maatsen!
